DEEP-FRIED TOFU POPPERS



Deep-Fried Tofu Poppers image

These poppers are great on their own, in salads, or in wraps. Freezing and thawing the tofu before cooking gives these poppers more of a meaty, chicken-style texture. Even people who have never tried tofu because they think it's "yucky" love them. Serve with dipping sauce of choice. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge and reheated in the microwave later or just eat them cold, straight from the fridge!

Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (12 ounce) package frozen extra-firm tofu, thawed
⅓ cup chickpea (garbanzo bean) flour
¼ cup nutritional yeast
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
⅓ cup water, or more as needed
1 tablespoon prepared yellow mustard, or more to taste
canola oil for frying

Steps:

  • Wrap thawed tofu in a paper or tea towel and press using a heavy object, 30 to 60 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine flour, nutritional yeast, seasoned salt, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Mix in water slowly until a thick, pancake-batter consistency is reached. Add mustard and mix well.

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 (12 ounce) package extra-firm tofu
½ teaspoon salt
vegetable oil for frying

Steps:

  • Wrap tofu in a clean towel and place onto a plate. Set another plate on top, and place a 3- to 5-pound weight on top. Press tofu for about 20 minutes; drain and discard the accumulated liquid.
  • Cut tofu into 1-inch by 2-inch chunks. Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon salt onto one slide; flip over and sprinkle remaining 1/4 teaspoon on the other.
  • Heat oil in a wok or large skillet. To test if the oil is ready, dip a chopstick or wooden spoon in it; if bubbles rise, it is ready. If the oil smokes, it is too hot.
  • Gently place 5 to 8 pieces of tofu at a time in hot oil using metal tongs. Be very careful as oil may splatter; use a splatter guard if possible. Fry tofu until golden, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Drain tofu on a plate lined with several paper towels. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
